Christmas Eve

Stars and lights on Christmas trees are common sights I know.But I saw something wonderful - the sky was all a-glow.I heard the sounds of little bells, the stars were all a-glitter.And dancing through the Milky Way? Faeries with wings a-flitter.

Their tiny feet made faerie dust fall down like flakes of snow.The Christmas tree was sprinkled and the lights began to glow.What was the sound that I had heard, what woke me in the night? It was St Nicholas' sleigh and reindeer numbering
